What an awesome day!!! :)

 

I actually swam ALONE for the first time in my life!!! Bestie is overseas now so I have to be more independent hahaha. Happy that my swimming has improved slightly and that I didn’t drown! :)

 

I think I should be able to pass my assessment test since my assessor didn’t comment much. Was tested on how to give an insulin jab to diabetic patients.

I would think it’s rather painless since the needle is so micro! But I wouldn’t know.

 

Angklung performance went well too I guess! At least there wasn’t any awkward pauses in between. Mistakes were otherwise too insignificant to be noticed. :)

Phew. Happy it’s over!!!!!! :) My first conducting experience! Lol~

Thank God for boldness and strength for the past 3 weeks. In times when I did not know how to go about leading the group, He showed me a way. And when I did not know what to say, He put words into my mouth.

I just knew it wasn’t by my own ability… Cos if it was, I’d have been afraid and doubtful of myself. But I know God was/is with me and nothing is too hard for Him. :’)

 

Here are some picturesss of our project presentation day!

The angklung guys with traditional  Batik attire 

Emma and I after performance!

Happy that we won’t have to get lost in Arts anymore for Angklung practices… *Shrug* Had a very bad experience today.

Outside lecture theatre before our project presentation :)

“Indonesia Indah” = “Beautiful Indonesia” :)

LT 8 :)

The “Saman Dance” where they use mainly hand movements. Usually an opening dance for events. :)

Costumes display! Different regions in Indonesia have different kinda costumes.

The “Kulintang”, something quite similar to the xylophone.

 

Singing + a little dance and drama item. :)

What a fun module with such entertaining projects! :)

I had to rush off before it ended so I didn’t get to try Indon food cooked by one project group boohoo. 

 

Went down over to the Esplanade for a SSO concert. We had complimentary tickets since my conductor is a cellist there.

Saw this on the way.
It was what my cello teacher had just told me.

Him: You have to practise every day.
Me: Every day…??? 0.0
Him: Yes. Every day.

I can’t escape!!! It’s haunting me everywhere I go. Lol~

Missed the first half of it which was a violin concerto, but it was still worth the trip down.

 

After the concert, we went down over to Janelle’s shop again together with our conductor (who just went there ytd)!!!

Everybody loves the deserts there! :)

My dinner! Lemon tart with self-made vanilla ice-cream! Not on the menu yet though~

The flavours are so authentic, it has a rich lemon taste!

GONE.

Like what my conductor said “It’s sinful… To leave anything on the plate.” Because it’s soooo nice! =P

 

Savouring their “7th Heaven” which is creme brulee with a thin coat of melted –> hardened sugar!

It tastes heavenly! I’m not usually a ‘cream’ person, but I love it!

This is named “Dark and Sexy”.

It looks rather “conserved” on the outside…

But when you slice it open slightly…

Its inner beauty oozes out!!!

I guess that’s why it’s described as “sexy” :)

See, even the owner likes it!!! :)

We had a great time together and left at about midnight! Sigh, so I can’t practise my cello AGAIN tonight… This is really bad. Will make it up tmr since I have the day free…

Anyway, the shop will be featured in the papers on Sunday! So watch out for it! :) (It has been attracting a lot of diabetic people too… As a future nurse, I will close one eye. I don’t blame them because it’s simply irresistible LOL… =X)

My favourite “Black Cow” was sold out today! Must try that if you are going!

Address can be found in my previous entry. :)

 

Tonight’s indeed a good celebration to end off the week! :)
